Horrible: China moves to harvesting organs from live and unwilling donors
American Thinker ^ | 10/28/2019 | Monica Showalter

As if starvation, the Cultural Revolution, and then infanticide, the laogai, the social credit system and sex-selection abortions were not enough, here's the latest from our trading partners the Chinese:

China is now harvesting the organs of political prisoners of conscience on a wide scale for medical transplants against their will - and with the unwilling 'donors' still alive.

According to an important Fox News report:

It’s the stuff of nightmares. And it has been buried from public view, hard to prove, and shrouded beneath the cloak of silence for almost two decades.

But anecdotes and evidence are slowly bubbling to the surface that the organs of members of marginalized groups detained in Chinese prisons and labor camps are unwillingly harvested. Most affected is a spiritual minority, the Falun Gong, who have been persecuted for adhering to a Buddhist-centric religious philosophy grounded in meditation and compassion.

After 12 months of independent assessment of all available evidence, the seven-person China Tribunal panel – which was initiated by the International Coalition to End Transplant Abuse in China (ETAC), an international human rights charity – delivered its final findings in June. The tribunal, chaired by Sir Geoffrey Nice QC who led the prosecution of Slobodan Milosevic in the International Criminal Trial for the former Yugoslavia, stated with “certainty” that “in China, forced organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience has been practiced for a substantial period of time.”

“Forced organ harvesting has been committed for years, and Falun Gong practitioners have been one – and probably the main – source of organ supply,” the report concluded, pointing to the growing transplant industry already worth more than $1 billion.

The Voice of America has an earlier and equally outrageous report (with photos of the nightmarish act) here.

So if your social credits are low they’ll take your liver? No surprise at all.

That is what happens when you give the government too much power.

All someone has to do is come up with a pill that flags transplant donors as unacceptable. It would give the potential donor antibodies for communicable diseases.

Otherwise, it could have an ingredient that would insure donated organ rejection.

A while back, I watched Korean TV every day. One recurring theme was the illegal sale of body organs by organized criminals. Apparently the practive is not limited to China.

In Korea if you owe the mob money, they will kidnap you and harvest your organs to pay the debt

So I have to wonder why we have complete silence from Congress. With all the Russia fear, where is the China outrage? Why don’t we hear from the House or Senate about China and its abuses? Could it be money?

>This cringe worthy aspect of Chinese behavior...<

Imagine what POWs can expect if they fall in Chinese hands.

Because the Dems get money from China, so it is okay.
